Room 65

If you have no idea what Room 65 is, then there are other "outward facing" pages that explain all about it; this page is all about how to get involved. The event requires a lot of people doing a lot of different roles to make it happen. The majority of these helpers come from the church membership, but others are very welcome to join us too. In 2009 we had 3000 through the doors which clearly requires a lot of man power to make sure they are comfortable, but most importantly engaged with the gospel either directly by conversation, or indirectly through the very act of being in a church amongst God's people for an evening. You don't have to have any specific skills to be involved, nor do you need to commit to being there every night or for a whole night. You just need to be willing and able.

So to put it bluntly, we need you! If you are interested, then follow these steps to sign up:

1. Choose a week

Week 1: 2-7 August 2010:

Week 2: 9-14 August 2010:

Week 3: 16-21 August 2010:

Week 4: 23-28 August 2010:

2. Add the dates to your diary

Room 65 2010 runs from Monday 2nd until Friday 28th August, excluding Sundays. You will generally need to be available from about 7:15pm, and the cafe usually finishes by 11pm. Please block off as many dates as you can in your diary to help. This will make the job of scheduling who is needed for each night as easy as possible. Be sure to update the availability online should things crop up which will mean you can't do a night that you previously said you could do. By default we'll think you are free for all the nights.

3. Keep checking your email

Each of the teams has an email list associated with it, so we'll hopefully keep you in touch with all that's going on through email and through announcements on Sundays.

Thanks so much for your interest. If you have any questions at all, then you can talk to us or email us through Room65Admin@carrubbers.org.

4. Pray for Room 65

Each day from 6th July until Room 65 we will be having an hour of prayer in Carrubbers. We want to seek the Lord in all that we do at Room 65 and so as well as this we will be emailing daily prayer news to those who sign up...

What if God's people prayed?:

"What if His People Prayed?..."  We are seeking to find out by spending July in the run up to the launch of Room 65 focused on mining through prayer the treasures of God's gospel, which promises salvation to all who will believe on Christ.  We also want to encourage everyone to grow in confidence and learn more about prayer.  You can be involved in the 27 Days of Prayer in July in a variety of ways:

  1. Sign-up for the daily Praying Together e-mail and blog to receive prayer points for each day and a short devotion on an aspect of prayer.  Each week is themed:
    • Week 1 - Principles of Prayer;
    • Week 2 - Lessons from the Lord's Prayer;
    • Week 3 - Lessons from Jesus' High Priestly Prayer;
    • Week 4 - Lessons from Paul's Prayers.
  2. Read-along with us a book that will greatly bless you and help you in prayer: "With Christ in the School of Prayer" by Andrew Murray (available online for free) which each day has a short 2-3 page lesson on prayer,
  3. Come-along to the daily "What if His People Prayed Nights" prayer meetings in Carrubbers 8pm-9pm (from 6th July) to spend time committing everything to the Lord and asking Him to move mightily!
